Unfortunately the video quality issue isn't unique to her site. Many independent sites that have good photos have poor video. IMO, lighting and post processing are the biggest weaknesses.
I agree but a lot of it is down to ignorance. Shooting video is more difficult than pics and you need to commit to it to get it right. I have £4000 of pic equipment etc and I would need £2500 min to get the same quality video. In this day and age that is a big commitment risk.

Also may site owners are afraid of the bandwidth issue so totally compress the life out of the video to keep file size to an absolute minimum with the resulting very poor quality.

It's a shame. All the pieces are there. Someone that really knows what they're doing could upgrade her site/program to one of the top in her niche(s).[/quote]

Ah but the same could be said of so many sites not just Lana's.
